Abstract

The author analyzes the teachings of Mukarjovsky about the work as an artistic sign in the aspect of the study of ways of generating indirect meanings in the visual arts. It is made the explication of conceptual tools that can serve the study of semantic shifts in art. The author identifies the methodological potential of the concepts of "function" and "aesthetic norm" as an analysis tools for figurative formations. The article shows the duality ways of metaphorization in the art in accordance with the antinomical structure of the work as an autonomous aesthetic sign and communicative sign. It is noted the importance of the concept of "poetic language" in the understanding of the polysemy of figurative phenomena in the visual arts.
